Volume 2 - CH 16

Chapter 2-16. Trap

After that battle, I was wandering around to find a comfortable bed.

The trees are thin around here and still have young leaves.

These trees are unlikely to have lived for even fifty years.

That mean these trees are being planted.

There may be a village of people around here.

Cutting down trees ... Is there a carpenter-related job? 

If they can manage the forest, it seems that transportation routes have been cultivated.

Doesn't that mean I was blown away to the place where people live?

That bastard ... I don't have transforming skill to make me a human look-alike creature, but I was thrown to such a place.

This is bad ... so far, I can't find anything useful to sleep, that would be my current objective.

No, it's not that I didn't find anything ... I just can't find any place to sleep.

Ah ... I miss my first base.

I did my best to clean it ... I also remodeled it.

I was quite attached to it, but ... it can't be helped , right?

I've walked a long way from the place I was before, but ... I can't even find any moss!

So cruel!

I want moss ...

I really want to find some moss.

I want to feel that fluffy sensation.

Let me tell you, not every kind of moss is dirty, you know?

Certainly, there is an image of it being in a swamp dirty or cave, but that’s just an ideal place for it to grow easier.

Actually, it doesn't smell at all.

You know, there are also in the typical Japanese garden, you see?

Doesn’t most famous temples have a beautiful garden?

It's not dirty.

Let me tell you again, it's not dirty!

Phew ... I don't know why but I’m really passionate about moss nowadays.

Long story short, moss is the best.

As a bed.

I am looking for moss while wandering around.

However, no matter how hard I search for it, I couldn't find any moss at all.

While I was getting tired and distracted, I didn't notice a trap.

What the!?

The trap was made of nets, and as soon as I stepped on the gimmick, a rope wrapped around me covering my whole body.

And I was suspended in the air.

It's a typical net trap.

Wait ... what do you call it again?

I can't tell if I'm embarrassed or honored to have fallen into the typical trap so far.

It's going to be an interesting story to tell.

The gap is too small that I can't seem to get through it.

Can I somehow cut it into pieces?

I wonder if this is okay, [Herculean Jaw].

I try to bite off the rope by activating [Herculean Jaw].

I just thinking this is just a rope, it should be easy to cut, but ... I couldn't cut it.

!!?? What in the pond is this!??

Why it’s so-! Hmm! Nununu!

Eh, seriously! ?? What is this rope made from!

It stretches and it is very soft ... What the frog!??

Hey, hol'up a sec ~?

I tried many times, but there was no sign of this rope tearing at all.

The texture is like a Konjac jelly.

But I can't cut it with [Herculean Jaw].

If I'm not mistaken, this skill is good at biting anything.

Maybe this skill is just not suitable for cutting this thing.

So, I decided to use my newly acquired skill, the [Great Water Blade].

Since its written this skill is quite sharp in the skill description, this net should be cut off!

Hmmm.

I can't cut it.

WHY! Why can't I cut it?!

What if the blade is spinning like a chainsaw??! I'm going to spin it!

This blade is awesome.

It's a blade that feels like it's either you cut the foe or cut yourself if you’re not careful.

It would be hurt if I was hit by it.

But that’s not it! I can't cut it!

[Multiple Water Spear]! I can't cut it!

How about [Reamed Water Spear]! Thank you for your hard work!

Eh, wait a minute, am I really going to be stuck in here?

None of my cutting skills are working.

NO WAY!

Someone! Someone help me! HERUPU MIII!!!!!



―Three hours later―

Nobody came ...

If I'm forgotten like this, I'll starve to death ...

No, I haven't died yet.

If you're a snake and eat once, you can stay idle for a long time, so there should be no problem.

That quail egg eating snake ... What was the name again?

I've heard that snake can still be active without eating anything for a month if it eats an egg once.

I wonder if other snakes have a long activity time like that.

It's already evening.

I've tried it many times, but I can't cut the rope at all.

What kind of material is used in this rope?

Thinking so, when I listened to the voice of heaven, I got a very surprising answer.

[This rope is made from Spider Silk. This material is hard to cut but easy to burn]

What kind of creature is Spider Silk?

I couldn't do anything anymore because I didn't have flame-related skills.

I've been stretching my body for a long time because I have too much free time, but I still can't get out of here.

I don't have any choice but to wait for the one who set this trap.

Hurry up!



-next morning-

…………are you kidding me?

No one came.

Did the trapper forget the existence of this trap?

Well, it's a trap with no food or bait, so it's quite rare to catch something.

But they should come to see it about once every two days, right?

Something like a hunter or something like that.

It doesn't make sense if your product(me) is dead, so come see it!

It kind of comfortable sleeping in here.

I felt like I was in a hammock, so to say I was comfortable was an understatement.

Uh oh, dang it, the winds feel so good.

Rattling …….

Then I heard a carriage-like sound.

And I can hear voice.

The sound seemed to be getting closer and closer.

...... Did the guys who set up this trap come to see it?

Have you finally come to see it?

Am I right……?

AAArgh! Anything is fine! Anyone can take this down please!

Then I stay still when the carriage stopped near the trap I was in, and three men came out.

It's humans.

The face is far from looking like a Japanese.

It's more like a Westerner.

The clothes of the people were shabby, and they seemed to carry a dagger on their waists and not wear anything look like armor.

"----------!"

"---!"

"--- !! ---!"

They seemed happy to see me, but ... I don't understand their words.

Isn't this the most necessary skill to become a human being?

Heavenly voice! Do something!

Oh, wow.

Thank you, Voice of Heaven ... I can understand their words now.

After acquiring the skill, I became able to understand the conversation of the three men.

"Hey! This will make big money!"

"Heck yeah! Should we take it down quickly?"

"Wait a minute! I'll bring you a cage now!"

…………Uhmm?

Hold your snakes, isn't this atmosphere a bit weird?

I'm completely going to be sold off.

Well, if you're going to catch something, it's usually either that or get eaten, so I guess it's still a good thing.

Oh, bring me a gorgeous cage.

Eh?

What are you trying to lock me in?

Oh my god, what kind of joke is that.

But don't you think it's hard to put me into that!

I'm also have a preference you know!

But for the time being, I can't escape unless I get out of this trap, so let's be quiet for a while.

"First, this"

"Ah yeah, gimme that stuff."

The men started burning some incense near me.

When I think about this, I gradually get sleepy.

I realized there, it's probably like a sleeping drug.

I held my breath at once, but I am too late to do that.

My head began to daze so much that I couldn't think about it, and I fell asleep deeply at the end.

The next time I woke up, I was neatly caged.

Damn it.
